I pretty much only use this site for making fun of Justin or posting stupid gifs so let’s switch things up for a change.
If you haven’t finished Mass Effect 3 then I guess spoiler alert. I think only Justin reads this though and I know he doesn’t have a game system anymore. At any rate you’ve been warned.
Last night Maya was watching me play Mass Effect 3 and I’d come to the part where you’re asked to choose the fates of the Geth and the Quarians.
The game literally asks you if you want to let all of the Geth die or allow them to live and essentially kill millions of Quarians in the process. I asked Maya what I should do and her initial response was to let the robots die because they are just machines. I had to explain to her that the Quarians created the Geth and when they’d decided that they no longer required the Geth they were going to shut them down. It was then that they realized the Geth had become self aware and didn’t understand why they were being shut down. This prompted a war between the two that lasted a couple of hundred years.
This led to a pretty awesome discussion about the definition of life and where our rights begin and end as it pertains to creating and destroying living things.
I told her ultimately it was her decision, I honestly hadn’t made up my mind on what I wanted to do but at this point I felt like it was a better decision for her than me.
She chose the Geth. She felt like they had a right for a chance at life even if it meant that their creators had to die. I asked her if she was sure and she said yes. After making the decision a pretty long cut scene plays in which you see the ramifications of your decision and quite a few Quarians bite the dust. I could see on her face that she was wondering if she’d made the right decision. At end of the clip Tali from my party ends up jumping off a cliff because she’s so sad about her people dying. I asked Maya if she felt like she’d made the right decision and she was sure she did. For the record I think it’s the decision I’d have made too.
I was pretty blown away with how grown up she seemed at that very moment. I still am honestly. I’m also pretty amazed that a video game spurred the entire thing. I think a lot of times video games get a pretty bad rap but I’m still raising a gamer. It seems like she’s getting more out of it than just calluses on her thumbs.

Jack is having second thoughts about asking that tiger for a high five.
You die from this right? I mean die of fear. Panic to death.

Roddy took a mean fall, but doctors say his condition is stable.
This shouldn’t make me laugh as much as it does.
